High-rise Structures

HCR ManorCare, Toledo, OH

The HCR ManorCare building is a recent high rise but moisture infiltration has been a problem for its owners. We investigated potential water entry sources, mainly the veneer expansion joint sealant. Other issues arose including decay and rust of the precast headers. Grunwell Cashero was commissioned to repair the concrete panel headers, clean the veneer and provide weather sealing. We were able to match the existing profile and color of the aggregate textured panels, by obtaining the same aggregates used by manufacturer.
